The good, the bad, and the polenta…

I started a new sweater. I think it’s gonna be an epic win. It’s the soon to be formerly named Norah sweater by Indigirl (Amy Swenson) and it’s really just made of beautiful. I love the lines. I love the fact that I had the perfect pile of Malabrigo sitting in my house waiting to be this sweater. I love that I got to start it and work on it during some really beautiful days spent in the park (hence the frisbee/picnic table portrait).

Obviously I’ve been in a foul mood lately. That’s why the absence from blogging. If you don’t have anything nice to say, well come sit by me. Seriously though. Sometimes I have to mentally slap myself and remind myself that I have nothing to be grumpy about. At all. Geesh.

Oh and the polenta? Dude. I went to Native Sun today to get some nutritional yeast. We’ve been out of it for way too long. I love a bowl of polenta with some butter spray and nutritional yeast sprinkles. Trust me, it’s really good. But today when I went to put the dry polenta away in the cupboard over the stove…

In other epic win news, the dyeing has been going spectacularly well. I mean even better than I had hoped for. The store will be opening any day now. Watch this space.

    The photo of the polenta made me cringe. Yeah, I’m one of those moms who does cry over spilled milk…well, you have to clean it up when it happens, then clean it again later because a quick clean just to get through dinner is never enough. Am I right on this or am I right. Right. I bet clean up on the polenta was fun, eh? Do you smell toasting polenta everytime you fire up the stove or what? This too shall pass (or so they say).

    I had a similar accident a few weeks ago. Only with sugar and the pantry floor. Then, the next day I had a dried black-eyed pea incident in the pantry. We have so much in common. ;]~

    How does a knitter get this cleaned up ? Is it eatable at all ? The very next purse I knit is gonna be your Taffy pattern, I just love it.
